Comparing Fire Cape and Dragon Gloves
Dragon is +9 to all combat stats (except prayer and mage stats) +6 mage att and def. Master gloves are +12 all combat stats (except prayer and mage) +6 mage att and def. Also, combined with the prayer tab not existing when you're fighting the boss, and the souped up dagannoth king mother, there is a monster that greatly reduces all of your stats with spells that look like ice barrages...it's not a picnic to say the least to get through this. Anyway, you're saying the fire cape should have a stat boost, but I disagree since it's by far the best cape out in the game...the closest one to even compare it to besides the obsidian cape in usefulness would have to be the god capes...since don't get me wrong legends cape is better statwise, but the god capes are more useful for pking. And if you haven't noticed gloves have been needing improovements for a long time.

Recipe for disaster done with all xp pics and more...
Personally, I like the cleaver for a reward...it's about scimitar in speed, unusual looking to some and is decent with about +52 crush and +44 str.

Abyss crafters gather round!
Actually it doesn't, but I still bring an ectophial whenever I rc anyway in case somebody starts to mage...and if you ever die and lose your pouches just setup a cannon and ancient mage. By using about 50 ice bursts and 150 cannonballs you should get them all back np.

Evil Chicken Lair
When you kill a black dragon there inside the lair it will drop a dragon token or something along those lines. Then, you'll be tellied to a place where there is a fairie dragon that will grant you a wish. Ask it to cook the flambee and then it will, but It will suggest you have ice gloves on so you don't get your arm cooked. I didn't have that, but asked it to cook it anyway and my anti-firebreath potion protected me from damage.

hellcatz!!
Yeah you have to have your cat kill/catch hellrats. Note: You only seem to be able to have 1 hell cat at a time (including inventory and bank)

Mole Drop List
Aye what chicken said, I did check the tanner in hopes that there'd be mole range armor earlier, but there wasn't lol...besides it probably would of took 45 ranging or so and be ugly if it existed lol, but hey you never know.

Message of the week
Yeah to get one of these "strange" effects just wear something of a different god than the portal. Going through the zammy portal this way makes you an imp, the guthix portal, a sheep, and the saradomin portal a bunny...remember a day I was bored and cw was still new so I got a bunch of monkeys (from monkey madness), banked them and then withdrew them all in my inventory to release them in the cw waiting room....man people freaked out LOL!

Mole Drop List
I figured I'd start up a mole drop list since nobody else has yet and try to keep it up. Always drops 1 big bones 1 mole claw 1-3 mole skins Drops 15 blood addy sword airs (115? can't remember sorry lol) 3K gp 4 sharks (unnoted) 15 laws

Dieing in the new monster area... (skull bug)
The chaos elemental is fairly safe and one of the random effects from it seems to be to raise your prayer lol....i noticed that once and was like...umm ok...

Beastiary - Drop lists of Killerwatt & Chaos Elemental
chaos elemental 400 mith darts 100 chaos 40 deaths 500 air defense pot (1 dose) dragon bones (2) bat bones (2-4) big bones (2-3) had some more, but can't remember them right now sorry lol Note: It's been known to have more than 1 drop combination at a time Ex. 3 big bones and 2 bat bones at once, or defense pot (1 dose) and 3 pizzas.

New Monster
You can dream, yes, but a bow made out of metal wouldn't be able to fire well at all, it wouldn't be flexible enough ;) Idk about that a bowsword could work fairly well in firing since it'd be flexible, aye not as flexible as wood, but still would have a twang to it. Anyway, I'm going to laugh if it's a guy named cloud (FF7?) That'd be hilarious seeing all these people expecting some sort of thunder giant and it turning out to be this NPC your size with a huge 2H that just 3 hits you :P Anyway, my guess is it'll be a dragon pickaxe since there's already enough new item updates, with a pretty cruddy special, but will make people pile you if you're out mining rune in the wildy or mining at the mining guild. Also, who's not to say that it isn't both the d2h and d pick lol I mean both are seen on the HS page, but a d warhammer I just don't see happening anytime soon, because that if anything is probably going to come out from the quest series at Keldagrim...due to dwarves being known to use war hammers throughout most RPG's.

Slayer Bug?
Aye that's what happened I've had this before, but I think that was at firegiants.

Enakhras Lament XP reward discussion
I think the 5K xp people got was a bug, since i completed the quest the same time as the first wave of people was. So the actualy reward is probably 7K. I know I only got 5K, opened all the doors, used 2 of the exits, buried the bones, and chose the Ichtharin head.
-
New item, Camel Mask
Well I bet this update causes people to dress up as Joe camel and advertise cigarrettes lol.
-
Experiments? What's up with them?
Yeah experiments used to be the best xp in the game, but now they're too crowded so if you want good xp you'll have to retire to the axe hut.
-
Making the new items untradeable !!!
Solution...make certain items tradable. And those items should be teachers wand and lower wands, infinity top, and infinity bottom.
-
Ectophial
From the quest ghosts ahoy and used as a one clicking tele to outside port phasmatys...useful since it takes an inventory slot
-
my # 1 complaint
world 1 and 2 are fine for reading what people say and trading screens if you use the hide chat option. Then you can see what people are saying, but not in the chat box. Thus, you can see when people are trying to trade and what they are saying.

Land Sales Would Save the Runescape Economy
It is fair though actually since only people with money should be able to get a POH, but this idea really won't happen since I'm sure they'll do the usual parallel system like they done with farming. And everybody shouldn't be able to have their POH and if they did auction off land like this way who says they couldn't auction off more land they created later?
-
Land Sales Would Save the Runescape Economy
Would work temporarily, but once people get high carpentry a good chunk of them would start paying even more outragous prices for phats.

lvl 80 eqipment
I'd give them a year for lvl 80 equipment and to answer the melee question you have it's because most people train melee and pk with melee than range and mage...so they try to mostly keep the majority happy.
-
We Need A Buddy System.
Too complicated to program I'd say and really the concept itself seems to fall apart since what is making them do it itself besides their word? Yes, potentially they COULD be banned, but they could just drop trade that stuff or something else...so it wouldn't be worth the time to do that.

Carpentry: Your opinion
I definately think carpentry will have it's uses. As for farming it was everything I expected it to be and really isn't a bad skill...I just choose not to train it any farther. Carpentry will probably allow you to make things like beds and chairs yes that can be used inside your own personal houses, but don't underestimate the power of the bed. In RSC beds and sleeping bags were used to restore fatique so in carpentry they will probably be used to restore eng and perhaps HP. That alone is useful :P Also, you will probably be able to make chests to hold things like little bank chests, but seperate from the bank. That can be useful if you just wanted to quickly access your usual Pking gear. Also, players will probably be able to visit other player's house, but only see their own house. In order for the other player's to access a player's house that person will probably have to be on the person's friend list and tele themself there with an enchanted ruby necklace. I think POH have a lot of potential, but don't expect something miraculous or you will probably be dissapointed and my membership I'm letting expire today and I'll pay for it again to activate about December when carpentry should come out :D

Carpentry? How about engineering instead?
Ok for starters we have dwarves for engineering so I think engineering is covered there sorry. Also, carpentry has been used in RS already. In Ictharin's Helper there is a carpenter there that needs your help so that he can assemble a holy symbol. So when the carpentry skill comes out you will probably be able to make that along with some bank chests probably for POH to give you extra bank space. I don't know about you, but I'd rather have a couple of extra rows of bank space over a gun or composite bow in RS anyday and here I'm a ranger :P
